Aunt Nellie died in 2002, she was 101. There was Elsie Miller that I believe they visited, who died a few years ago was related to our family, but not Acie Miller her husbands line of Millers. She was related to the Ford/Miller and McDaniel families of mine. She wrote a book I have a copy of on the McDanials/McDaniels. Katherine Litsey Woosley was related to the Millers, from Sarena Miller's line. Sarena was a sister in law to Delilah House Miller. Aunt Edna died of cancer in 1986, she was 74. There is one sister left in the G. A. Miller family of 11 children, 2 boys and 9 girls. My grandfather Marion was born in Caneyville in 1908, some of his siblings were born in KY and some in Oregon but not how most would be, these were a few in OR a few in KY, a few in OR again. One of his siste! rs died after he was born in 1908, Ada V. Miller when she was 8 years old, I seem to remember being told that she had a bad heart, I may be wrong. I wanted to check to see where she was buried, I have not found as yet Ada Vitula Miller(b. 3/5/1900-10/14/1908). I will look for a letter I have of the visit, it is a kind of short journal of the trip, I know it has some names in it, she talks about the food they ate and things they did. My aunt was quite a writer, but she never got to finish her genealogy research before she died. I was given alot of her papers that have helped me in my own. I believe one of the other House girls, a sister to Bud's dad was related to the Embry family as well, I would have to check. There are some families there in Grayson co. that everyone seems to have in their fam. trees if they have been there since way back, we are connected to quite a few. The Millers/McDaniels first came to the county around 1810 from South Carolina, I have not found for certain where my Millers were from. Millers in KY and Jones in TN are my lot. There may be more of early Jacob Miller's line around there, I have not been able to find more on all the children. There are so many Millers and it is hard to go way back, especially when wills and other old records are hard to come by for this area from the courthouse fires. I know my Wade Singleton Miller, Delilah's son stated that the only record of his marriage in 1868 at Leitchfield was a bible record, as the records burnt. He married Sabra E. McSherry. She was related to the Baird family that Bardstown, KY was named for in Ohio Co. Gina Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
